Real Salt Lake Captain Kyle Beckerman joined The Dan Patrick Show on Tuesday morning, talking with Dan and the guys about the U.S.'s draw with Portugal on Sunday, Cristiano Ronaldo and the etiquette on jersey swaps at the end of matches.
The best part of Kyle's interview came when Dan asked if he'd cut his dreads to guarantee a win over Germany. His response? A quick yes, of course.
Check out Kyle's entire interview from this morning's show up above.
Traveling to and from Manaus is, even in the best of times, a challenge. Manaus' raison d'être is its usefulness as a port city in the middle of the Amazon jungle; it boomed in the early 20th century as a distribution point for a growing rubber industry and now has a population around two million. It's very literally only accessible by plane or boat, there are no roads and the stadium was constructed at huge cost using only materials that could be delivered in either of the two aforementioned ways.
Unfortunately, this wasn't the best of times. This was the World Cup, and so the travel was a nightmare. I'll spare you the gory details, as I suspect travel horror stories are just as boring for the listener as fantasy sports stories and fishing tales. The basics, though: answering a 1:30 AM wakeup call for a 9 AM Natal-to-Manaus flight, getting to the airport at 9 PM for a 5 AM Manaus-to Natal departure. We were the lucky ones; the trip has been split into two planes, creatively named Plane 1 and Plane 2. I'm on Plane 1, the Plane 2 prisoners left at 12 PM and 2 PM respectively for the above planes. This means they spent roughly 24 hours waiting in airports. Cue the sad trombone.
Once arriving, we were taken on a Manaus city tour by bus. Our tour guide, Marlon, largely passed the time by sharing local Manausian jokes. The best one: "When you do wrong on Earth, where do you go? You go to hell. When you do wrong in hell, where do you go? You go to Manaus."
Manaus splits time between the seasons of "undesirably hot" and "egg-cooking-on-concrete hot". Luckily we were still in the former stage, yet it was still over 100 degrees and over 80 percent humidity during the pre-match party. The game, mercifully, was at night, because the temperature was raised by the more than 40,000 spectators at the match.
It's really difficult to objectively describe a USMNT match as when attended with the American Outlaws. The problem is that every minute contains an emotion raised to the millionth power. Faith: The "I Believe That We Will Win" chant, one so powerful and catchy Brazilians have asked me multiple times to teach them the words. Competitiveness: Every time the Portugal fans tried to get a chant going, AO made their best effort to drown it out with one of their own (I'm not sure how effective it was on TV, but it was extremely powerful from within that end of the stadium). Elation: Both U.S. goals, one to get the draw for the US and one to get the win. Despair: Allowing the Portuguese to score the latest goal in regulation in World Cup history.
After that, we were bussed to the airport. At about 1 AM, I wandered around and found several hundred USMNT fans passed out, sleeping on the tile floors. The Amazon had exhausted us all.
Sports are great because they're proxies of the human condition, compressed into two to three hour blocks. Yesterday's match against Portugal was one of the greatest examples of that in US history, and the American Outlaws experience just magnified it even more. I'm so lucky to be here.
It's all becoming a little bit routine, isn't it?
Nearly every single time RSL Captain Kyle Beckerman steps onto the field for the U.S. Men's National Team, he turns in a workmanlike, stable and – ultimately impressive – performance.
Sunday's 2-2 draw against Portugal was no exception, with Beckerman starting and playing the full 90 against Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. As always, Beckerman was solid tactically, positioning himself expertly and providing plenty of solid cover in front of the American backline. His four interceptions were second only to center back Matt Besler's five and his two clearances were tied for fourth overall and tied for first among U.S. midfielders.
The defensive midfielder was also solid in possession, completing 53 of 58 passes, good for a 90 percent completion rate. Beckerman's 53 successful passes were second on the team to fellow midfielder Michael Bradley and his 90 percent success rate was fourth on the squad on Sunday.
Most importantly, Beckerman gave the U.S. a victory in the critical "Midfield Battle for Hair Dominance" on Sunday, crushing Portugal's mohawked midfielder Raul Meireles in the tackle and in the tresses.
As always, the Men In Blazers have more:
Beckerman and the U.S. will return to action on Thursday, taking on Germany at 10 a.m. MT with their Round of 16 hopes on the line.
We're 18 games into the World Cup and – so far – there are two goals that stand out as a cut above the rest.
The first? Dutch forward Robin van Persie's acrobatic header in Holland's 5-1 opening game win against Spain. You've seen this one by now. A truly lovely goal, as brilliant for the sheer gusto of the move as the technical skill required to pull it off.The second goal comes from MLS' own Tim Cahil as he struck the volley 12 yards out and bent it over the Netherlands goalkeeper.
The second just happened Wednesday morning and comes courtesy of New York Red Bulls forward Tim Cahill. Take a look at this. What an absolutely insane volley. Bravo.
Which goal was better? You make the call – vote below.
Real Salt Lake midfielder Ned Grabavoy joined The Bill & OC Show on ESPN 700 yesterday, to get his take on the U.S.'s dramatic 2-1 win over Ghana. The RSL veteran had some great insight and analysis of the match and of course had nothing but praise for teammate Kyle Beckerman. Below are a few snippets of the interview but the whole thing is worth listening to here.
On Kyle's performance:
"I think he was the best player on the field. I know I'm biased but coming from a position that is a little bit of an inglorious position for me, Kyle was absolutely unbelievable in that game. I think he plays the position a little bit differently for the U.S. because the players around him, but a guy that has to stay home a bit more for the U.S. and really clean up things, and can't really get involved in the attack like he likes to for RSL. But at the same time maybe that's asked of him a little bit more for the U.S. and I thought he did an unbelievable job in there and did everything that was asked of him and more."
Grabavoy also approved of U.S. Manager Jurgen Klinsmann's decision to use the diamond midfield formation – the signature of RSL – that allowed what he thinks are the four best two-way midfielders to be on the field at the same time. But Grabavoy wouldn't be surprised if the German coach mixes things up in the next match against Portugal on Sunday.
"I wouldn't be surprised if he did especially knowing that a point in the next game maybe gets you through. For me as a coach, I think maybe I would think of switching shapes, but at the same time...he is a guy that claimed to always stay on the front foot and he's going to try and be as aggressive as he can going forward. So I just think it remains to be seen, but I wouldn't be surprised to maybe see them shift towards a 4-2-3-1. Maybe you play Beckerman and [Jermaine] Jones deep in the midfield with [Michael] Bradley in front of them."
Even with injuries to Jozy Altidore and Matt Besler, the RSL midfielder claims the Americans "couldn't be in a better position" heading into Sunday's clash in Manaus.
Wow, what a 48 hours! It still hasn't completely hit me yet that I'm in Brazil (!), watching the US Men's National Team play in the World Cup (!) Let's start from where we left off in the last post.
Early Sunday, the rain continued pouring in Natal, to the point that flooding became an issue in the streets. As we collected our tickets from the FIFA Ticketing Center, our taxis had to plow through the water. It seemed about a foot deep in some places, though the news channels here showed locations where people were in up to their waists. Luckily, the rain stopped later that day, allowing the city to dry out somewhat.
That night was the official US Soccer night-before party, and I'm incredibly impressed with how US Soccer put the event together. They actually converted a used car showroom into a pop-up "arena" for the night, filled with gigantic TVs everywhere, plenty of food and drink for the huge crowd, and a DJ and Brazilian band. The crowd for the event was great too: we started off with some US soccer chants, then the group just got into the music: crowdsurfers and energy everywhere.
On game day, us American Outlaws were bussed to a pizza-and-sushi restaurant (yes, really) near the stadium. That was another amazing experience: as a convoy of the Brazilian military sent to protect us watched on, we chanted and sang the National Anthem and God Bless America. Passing busses of Brazilians snapped photos and cheered us on. It was incredible. When the time came, a group of thousands made the March to the Match, again passing happy and surprised Brazilians in their streets.
The new Arenas das Dunas is beautiful; it was a remarkably intimate experience for a large stadium that seats over 40,000. Part of the credit for that goes to the Brazilian hosts, who made every effort to chant along with a majority US crowd. The group of Brazilians in front of me had a difficult time learning to pronounce "I believe that we will win", but they eventually figured out a reasonable facsimile. The Dempsey goal was a flash: neither the crowd nor the Ghanaian defense believed that it could happen so quickly. Then progressed 80 minutes of hell. Jozy and then Besler got injured. Dempsey went down. Ghana bore down on the US left side, attacking Beasley to nearly calamitous effect.
Ghana eventually got their goal, and the Ghana crowd erupted, and rightly so: it was a great goal. For the last 10 minutes, the stadium buzzed. As you all know, John Brooks scored, and everyone lost it. The best description: So. Many. Hugs. We all bussed back to the hotel, all still in a daze, all of us not quite believing that the US had finally beaten Ghana and given themselves a great chance to advance out of the group.
We now have five days off in between games, during which I'll be exploring more of Natal before heading off to Manaus. What a happy five days it will be.
One of our favorite parts of John Brooks' game-winning goal for the U.S. last night was the celebration.
No, we're not talking about Brooks' celebration – though his weird, I don't know what to do with myself so I'm just gonna go lie down over here thing was pretty good. We're talking about Jurgen Klinsmann and Nick Rimando's hug on the bench.
10 out of 10, dudes. Robin van Persie and Louis van Gaal could learn a couple of things from you two.
RSL Head Coach Jeff Cassar had our favorite quote about the celebration.

REviewlets: Into The Storm
If you're going to call a film Into the Storm, then you need to do some impressive storming if the film is going to work. Unfortunately for Into the Storm, the windy bits are the only part of the film that really work, as it has a very weak script, a flimsy grasp on what constitutes found footage, and some poorly shot scenes that take the tension out of the story.
One of the biggest problems I had with the film was with a character called Lucas, who seems to appear out of nowhere halfway through the film (to the extent that I thought him being visible in the background of a scene inside a van was a mistake, that he was a crew member rather than an actor), only to disappear again in scenes when he should actually be helping the people he's travelling with.
Another problem is the film's extremely loose definition of what found footage actually is. It's not uncommon for found footage films to cheat (I love Chronicle, but there are definitely 'wait, how could they have access to that footage?' moments), but Into the Storm often seems to forget it's supposed to be found footage, and the way several scenes are shot make it impossible for any of the characters to have shot it.
There's also a very lengthy 'Wait, why are they filming this?' scene, one that is basically a carbon copy of The Day After Tomorrow when Jake Gyllenhaal's character calls his dad because he's going to drown. Two characters fall into a hole in an abandoned factory when a tornado hits, leaving them trapped under rubble while water pours in. But they inexplicably set up a camera as they try to get out, as though they've thought 'Hey, I need to film us as we slowly drown, so our parents can see us die'. Another problem with that scene is that it's shot in such a way that it appears as though there are higher parts of the wrecked area that they could move into to give them more time to survive.
But despite all these problems (the film also has too many characters, none of whom are particularly interesting, and what appears to be a relatively small town also has a bizarrely large airport), the scenes of the tornadoes in action are reasonably well done, and entertaining enough to mean the film isn't a complete waste of time. Basically, it could have been a lot worse, which isn't a recommendation, but it is a little bit better than I was expecting.

To view our full selection of recent Eclipse stories click here
Over the last several weeks I've received a few questions about remote debugging with Eclipse. I posted about this on my other blog back in February here but with not enough info for others to follow.
If you go look at that blog entry you will see that I looked into 'in eclipse' debugging but did not find it satisfactory.
So without further ado here is how I use Tomcat, JBoss, and Eclipse to build and debug applications.
Whichever platform you are using (Tomcat or JBoss) you need to start them with the JPDA debugging enabled. For Tomcat this is very easy. In the $CATALINA_HOME/bin directory there is a script catalina.sh. If you provide the arguments 'jpda start' tomcat will startup and listen on port 8000 for a debugger connection.
With JBoss its only slightly more complicated. Basically you need to specify the JAVA_OPTS to have java start up listening for debugger connections. I typically copy the $JBOSS_HOME/bin/run.sh to $JBOSS_HOME/bin/run-debug.sh but you can just as easily setup the JAVA_OPTS environment variable and use the run.sh script.
The value of JAVA_OPTS needs have -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:server=y, transport=dt_socket,address=4142, suspend=n specified.
So this is what is going on with this argument list
- Xdebug == start the jvm and listen for debugging connections
- Xrunjdwp... == the info on how to connect to do remote debugging
- server=y == start in server mode (i.e. wait for connections, don't go out looking to connect
- transport=dt_socked == use sockets, this works (I think) only on unix (I'm on a mac), on Windows you have to use shared memory via the transport=dt_shmem argument instead. I'm fairly sure this works but its been a while since I tried it on Windows. YMMV. Here is the official info on the connection arguments
- address=4142 == the port to connect to or the shared mem address to use
- suspend=n == don't wait for a debugger to tell you what to do, go ahead and launch
Once you have JBoss or Tomcat running and listening for debugging connections you are good to go for connecting with Eclipse
The first thing you need to do is create a 'debug launch configuration' by bringing up the launch configuration editor. Figure 1 shows the menu item to invoke to make that happen
When the launch config editor appears select 'Remote Java Application' from the 'Configurations:' selection list on the left hand side then click the 'New' button. Figure 2 shows the defaults that appear for me after hitting the 'New' button.
Since it defaults to the Tomcat port leave the port number set to 8000, if yours is different then change it to 8000. Notice also that you can specify the host to connect to. If you have access to the port and the process is running on another machine then you can debug the process remotely. This works out really well for those situations where it works fine in your local env but not in the test env. I usually rename the configuration (it defaults to the name of the project for me) to 'Debug Tomcat' or something like that.
The other options (Source & Common) can be ignored for now. If you have not already launched tomcat in debug mode do so now on the command line with $CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh jpda start. When its launched go back to the Eclipe launch configuration editor and hit the 'Debug' button. If you are not auto switched to the'Debug' perspective go there now. You should see a 'Debug View' that looks a lot like Figure 3.
Your code should be directly below the Debug View if you have the default layout still in place. If so go there and set a break point in one of your servlets' service methods (or any other code that is being executed in Tomcat, like a struts action or whatever) and then go to the Web browser and tickle the code that you have a break point set in. Notice that Eclipse suspends Tomcat at the breakpoint, comes to the front and lets you debug your program. Everything works just as if you were debugging locally.
Everything works the same within JBoss once you get it started with the debugging turned on. Keep in mind that you must set the port to match (in the above discussion of JAVA_OPTS it is set to 4142). So you need to create a new Debug launch configuration and specify 4142 as the port. Then you can debug your EJBs.
If you'd like to know more about this or you are having trouble making it work feel free to comment or send me an email.
Happy Debugging!

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic • Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural style...

Vermont senators call for reversal of Citizens UnitedBy DAVE GRAM
The Associated Press | May 10,2013MONTPELIER A group of Vermont lawmakers called for a national constitutional convention to reverse the effects of the U.S. Supreme Courts Citizens United decision that allowed corporations greater influence in political campaigns.
Sen. Ginny Lyons, D-Chittenden, led a group of senators at a news conference Thursday calling for what would be the first constitutional convention since the one that convened in Philadelphia in 1787 to write the original Constitution.
If we want real democratic reform we have to start it here in Vermont and urge our elected leaders in Washington to support free and fair elections, Lyons said. Its time for state leaders and local citizens to step up and take action to get our country back on track.
While Lyons was joined by Sens. Robert Hartwell, Anthony Pollina, and others, the idea was not universally popular.
Calling a constitutional convention potentially is one of the greatest threats to freedom that I can think of, said Sen. Peter Galbraith, D-Windham.
He said limiting the agenda ahead of time would be impossible and such a convention could result in the United States being officially declared a Christian country, without abortion rights, freedom of speech, press or other rights, he said.
Others noted that Lyons and Hartwell were among the senators who earlier this session voted to help defeat a ban on corporate contributions to political campaigns in Vermont. Critics of the Citizens United decision, like Lyons, have complained that it opened the floodgates to corporate money in politics by equating corporations with people and money with speech.
The constitutional convention idea was raised on a busy day at the Statehouse as lawmakers rushed to finish their business for 2013 by what legislative leaders say they still hope will be a Saturday adjournment.
Other developments Thursday included:
Legislation to allow child care workers to unionize and negotiate with the state over subsidies for parents of children in their care and over working conditions failed in the Senate, after Lt. Gov. Phil Scott ruled it could not be added to a miscellaneous education bill, and supporters failed to muster the three-fourths majority needed to override that ruling.
The House debated much of the day before giving preliminary approval to a bill that would require labels on genetically modified food. The Senate lacks time to work on the measure this session, however, lawmakers said.
Supporters of marijuana decriminalization worked to resolve the differences between House and Senate versions. The stickiest among them was the Senates addition of language saying Vermont would shift from misdemeanor criminal penalties to traffic-ticket-like fines, not just for up to an ounce of marijuana but also up to five grams of hashish. The two contain the same active ingredient, with five grams of hashish being about equivalent to an ounce of pot.MORE IN Vermont NewsBURLINGTON A jury began deliberations Tuesday in the case of a man charged along with his wife...

Shelves: christianity, fantasy, science-fiction
One of the reasons that I don't read short story collections very much is that the stories are generally so uneven. That's particularly true in this case, as a great many very different writers are brought to gather to make statements about a subject people tend to feel pretty passionate about one way or the other.
I liked only eight or nine of the 25 stories. But I guess by Sturgeon's Law, that means this is a pretty good collection. Bradbury's 'The Man' (2 stars) was just 'meh' and didn't seem...more

I picked this up dirt cheap after Scott Danielson told me that Jesse Willis brought it to his attention. Editor Michael Bishop is a Christian but is interested here in presenting stories by believers and unbelievers alike, as long as the stories are good ones. Therefore, this is a collection of pieces by some of the most celebrated science fiction authors around including Ray Bradbury, Michael Moorcock, and Gene Wolfe.

Intriguing collection of short stories with Christ/Christology as the central idea to each. Some of the authors trotted out well-worn themes to no new/interesting conclusion (what if Jesus didn't really die/rise - zomg!) while others thoughtfully prodded and surprised. I especially liked Bruce Holland Rogers' Cross Carriers, written in the "symmetrina form", as noted in his Author's Commentary following the entry. (All of the Commentaries provided some context, though of course the stories [most...more

SPRINGFIELD - An economic development and job retention proposal was signed into law recently that seeks to improve business retention in Illinois counties that border other states.
State Senator Melinda Bush (D-Grayslake) was the Senate sponsor of the new law that recognizes the unique business retention concerns specific to border communities.
As a life-long resident and board member of a county that borders another state, Bush knows all too well about about the business-poaching practices of the states surrounding Illinois. She feels that the new law will improve the economic conditions of Illinois border communities, keeping them competitive with the states that they border.

Gerry Palano
Energy/Energy Efficiency Coordinator, Department of Agricultural Resources
When Karen and Glenn Cook, owners of Cider Hill Farm in Amesbury, attended a 2005 workshop on "Small Wind for Farms," little did they know that here a journey would begin towards launching their very first wind energy project: two grid-tied 10 kW wind turbines. While they were interested in saving money to help secure the future of their business for their next generation, Karen and Glenn also felt compelled to look into this in a serious way to demonstrate their desire to protect our environment.
Since that time, these 'Lewis and Clarks' of agricultural clean energy (or, as Karen prefers it, 'Lois and Clark') have installed an additional 10 kW wind turbine; a 10 kW ground-mount PV system; two outdoor wood boilers for their greenhouses with some of the wood coming from the pruning and management of their own orchards and forest land; energy efficiency projects including super insulating their apple walk-in cooler, infra-red (IR) grade plastic on all greenhouses, energy efficient lighting throughout their farm store, and high efficiency compressors for their cooler; and a recent 35 kW PV project consisting of two separate arrays – a 10 kW system on the roof of their new chicken coop and a 25 kW stacked ground mount. And, if that weren't enough, another 25.6 kW stacked PV ground mount is underway and scheduled for completion by the time this is published!
Through the new net metering provisions of the Green Communities Act Governor Patrick promoted and signed into law in 2008, Cider Hill's 100 kW of installed wind and PV capacity will be generating all of the farm's annual electrical needs. In fact, the Cooks are fast approaching zero net energy use – if they have not already achieved it. Quite an accomplishment in five years! Congratulations,to say the least!
As importantly, they have shown us these projects can be planned over time and not necessarily completed with one huge financial layout. Cider Hill has studied, planned, and received technical and financial assistance in the form of energy audits, grants and rebates from DAR, the Massachusetts Farm Energy Program, the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center, USDA and NGRID for these projects. At the same time, the Cook's have provided a lot of their own investment to balance the labor and economics of keeping the farming operation alive and well.
Cider Hill Farm is a truly diverse farming operation with orchard fruits, berries, vegetables, honey, cider, eggs and much more, including an on-site store. Cider Hill is also a vendor at farmers' markets and just started its first Consumer Supported Agriculture (CSA) this year. You should visit them, as DAR and a Spanish Agricultural Delegation recently did – coming away substantially more enthusiastic than we arrived!

onomatopoeia, the naming of a thing or action by a vocal imitation of the sound associated with it (such as buzz or hiss). Onomatopoeia may also refer to the use of words whose sound suggests the sense. This occurs frequently in poetry, where a line of verse can express a characteristic of the thing being portrayed. In the following lines from Sylvia Plath's poem "Daddy," the rhythm of the words suggests the movement of a locomotive:
An engine, an engine
Chuffing me off like a Jew.
A Jew to Dachau, Auschwitz, Belsen.
The following lines from "The Brook" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson are another example:
I chatter over stony ways,
In little sharps and trebles,
I bubble into eddying bays,
I babble on the pebbles.
What made you want to look up onomatopoeia?

The news follows his separation from wife of 25 years Maria Shriver earlier in May this year.
Maria moved out of the family home after the former governor of California acknowledged paternity.
In a statement to the LA Times, the actor-turned-politician said: "There are no excuses and I take full responsibility for the hurt I have caused."
The 63-year-old added: "I have apologised to Maria, my children and my family. I am truly sorry."

Charlie Sheen is done playing games with Brooke Mueller -- TMZ has learned, his attorney has sent her a letter demanding she move out of the home he bought for her ... RIGHT NOW.
Sources tell TMZ, the letter explains that Charlie is aggressively trying to sell the home -- which he purchased for Brooke so she and their twins could live close to him -- and she needs to pack her bags, stat.
But he doesn't just want her out of the house ... we're told Charlie wants her to move far, far away ... away from him and his other family with Denise Richards.
As we reported, Charlie is putting the home up for sale -- after purchasing it for around $4.8 million -- and is making the new price very attractive in order to sell it fast.
In fact, Charlie is so determined to get Brooke out of his life ... he's telling friends he'd gladly sell the house for a dollar just to get her out of his neighborhood.
Our sources say Brooke's brother Scott -- who's living with her in the gated community as the twins' temporary guardian -- hasn't been notified about any kind of move-out order.
Sources close to Sheen tell us, Charlie believes the letter was the motivating factor behind Brooke's allegations that Denise abused the twins ... Brooke was angry, and that's how she retaliated.
Hey TMZ! Are you working for Charlie now? You certainly have become his mouth piece! PATHETIC!!!
Hey Charlie ill buy it for a 100.00. Way more than a buck. Why not help this girl out. Think of it as paying it forward
Foci these two pathetic losers. Take the kids away from both of these drug addled miscreants .
TMZ you are overdoing the Charlie reports here.
Nice guy/Bad guy, all in a days work for a psychopath like Charlie.
You'd think he'd have more compassion with his own little children, than to exile them from his neighborhood and their sisters and himself. God knows where those twin boys will end up. Not in any kind of loving care of their father, that's for sure. Nor anyone in the entire Estevez clan taking them on. Kids can't raise themselves you know.
these boys don't get the benefit of the money charlie pays anyway, it's all about her and what she gets out of the deal. when her gravy train is over she might have to stay straight long enough to work like the rest of us. no sympathy from me.
l hope Charlie cuts brooke of completley as Brooke will use those kids as pawns for getting back at him . He should give the house to Denise to sell she has put up with a lot from Charlie and she still continues to show class and a heart and help him , he had the world turn against her when they split and yet she has risen above it and tried to do the right thing by Charlies kids and him l think he stuffed up by letting her go and he knows it
His boys will have zero respect for Charlie. One day they will read all this. I always was told watch how someone treats their ex because that is how you will be treated one day. He acts like a Methhead.
This man is disgusting. A poor excuse for a father and a man. If she is unable to be a fit mother as he contends then he should be seeking custody of his children. But he a selfish degenerate turd.
What happened to Brooke's jewelry business? It's the holiday season, you would think she would be trying to meet the demand for the beaded headbands with drop pendants on everyone's list.
Move?... OK... But we still get to keep the 55K a month right judge?
, im so tired of seeing things on your website about this dysfunctional meth head family. kids being raised around unfits will only lead them in the same direction. so sick and tired of this white trash.
I can't believe that Brook had the nerve to claim that Denise abused her boy's. Denise was the only one willing to put herself out to care for those poor boys. Just proves what a selfish crackhead she is. She does not deserve to have those boys live with her with or without her brother. The situation with her brother living there while watching the kids is a farce all by itself.
Ill buy her house Charlie
Charlie really needs to chill. He's being as childish as Brooke. Those kids have been bounced around so much that it might be more important to keep things stable for them right now. Everything he does to the mom might affect the kids, no matter how useless she is. He should instead keep them in the neighborhood and fight for visitation.

"3/4 mile walk"
Good hotel, weak but workable internet, across the street from beach reasonable pool, helpful staff.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not bad for the price"
This is clearly an older hotel that seems overdue for a remodel. That said, my room was large, clean and comfortable, the wifi was fast and free, and the hotel truly offers a free breakfast buffet which includes some hot food (but oddly, no eggs appeared to be available). The reception staff, at least when I first arrived, seemed to take a very hands […] off approach to customer service - my room wasn't ready (which was fine, because I showed up earlier than the check in time), so the staff instructed me to drop off my bags in their holding area and gave me the key to the room where they help all the customer's bags. No offer was made to take my bags from me, or even to walk me to the bag area (although they did ask me to bring the key back to the reception desk when I was done). During the day, the pool area felt like a ghost town - apart from cleaning staff, no one was around to serve drinks or food pool-side. I found it a bit strange that the pool was surrounded by an unkept lawn, and annoying that the beach-side door appeared to remain locked in the daytime (at least when I tried using it). Perhaps things are different during the high season, but I left the hotel feeling like the management was missing out on opportunities to provide more of a resort-like atmosphere to an otherwise perfectly located hotel (very close to Malaga city center and the beach). Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Close to the center and the beach"
I paid for a room with beach view and I had a room with a view to the pool, a building in front of my window and the hotel drawing room on the left, I could see the beach if I lean against the TV... I am not very satisfied about this but, as my visit was not tourism, I did not make a fuss about it.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Never again"
This has been the worst experience I ever had at a hotel. I travel very often, 5 countries and 8 hotels during the last three months. The staff was awful. I rented a two-beds room. When I arrived at the desk they asked for more money because there was another person coming with me. I mentioned that the purpose of renting a room with two beds was obviously […] in order to accommodate two people and that I had already paid online for two beds. They got very exited and suggested to go to another hotel. Coming from a long trip that was not an option for me. When I asked how much I had to pay, they responded: 12 EUR. I told them that the amount wasn't worth of a discussion and that I was happy to pay. At that point they had the nerve to joke "well if 12 EUR is nothing for you; how about 50 EUR?". Next day I'm having breakfast at the restaurant and there is a coffee machine. I walk to the coffee machine and they shut it down right as I walk to the machine. Breakfast ends at 10:30 am. Fair enough. While leaving the hotel they ask me to sign a document. Note that I had paid online and that I had paid the extra fee on arrival. This time is a different staff. I ask to explain why do I have to sign a document. They get very exited and almost yelling at me they tell me that it is needed so that they can get paid by the website where I made the reservation. In fairness I sign while mentioning my discontent about the whole experience... then, they totally yelled at me. Beware! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"beachfront value"
Nice choice for a beachfront hotel, very close to the city center, nice breakfast buffet included. Rooms were large, comfortable, and very clean. My only complaint would be poor Internet service in the rooms, otherwise great hotel.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Las Vegas in Malaga"
The Las Vegas in Malaga was an interesting hotel. The room was nice but small. The pool area was nice because you could see the ocean from the resort but could not access it from the beach side of the hotel. When we arrived we asked if we could move to a room on the beach side, offered to pay more and they would not let us. We tried again early the […] next day for the next night and they wouldn't budge. All in all, Malaga was nice because we ran into some amazing food near the hotel and the beach was close, but if we were to go back, we probably wouldn't stay at this hotel again. Not to mention it is a good 30-45 minutes walking distance from the train station about a 15 minute taxi ride. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Hotel Las Vegas"
Good value for the money. Excellent location, helpful staff and decent breakfast included! The room was comfortable enough for 3!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"acroos the street from the beach!"
we had a room overlooking the bay and the hotel pool, which was fabulous. the hotel is in a nice neighbourhood. lots of restuarants in walking distance. came in early. left our bags , used very clean bathroom facilities and took bus to down town. returned in early afternoon, room was ready. breakfast room inviting. bar on premises. all hotel staff very […] nice. would definitely return. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Funky in a good way!"
We like this "old" hotel very much. Has a 1950's charm. Lovely pool and grounds. Good breakfast. Great shower. Balcony a plus.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"No ocean view room as we anticipated."
The details said ..ocean and city view. Not ocean or city. We were expecting an ocean view. When we went to the front desk to ask about it the older gentleman at the desk was rather rude to us. Hotel is within walking distance of many things. A long walk for some. I would not stay there again as not to customer friendly!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great beach location and easy walk to town"
Excellent friendlyGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great location"
Location fantastic, on the beach yet 5 minutes by bus to the magnificent city centre. Rommel good, bed comfy, cleanliness excellent. Small niggle. Only pizza to be had at hotel. Bar too quiet. No cold water in hotel to buy.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"trip to spain"
love it nice hotel great locationGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice budget hotel"
Only problem i had was i could not check in till 2pm. Did not state a check in time when booking Room was nice with complimentary toiletries Lots to choose from for breakfastGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Older but clean hotel close to beach"
Staff at the front desk are very friendly, although the rooms are old they are immaculate. Balcony is a nice add on but the beds were not the most comfortable. Wifi is not very good. Only a 2 minute walk to the beach and about 5-10 minutes to great places to eat and the grocery store. Overall great place for a quick stay.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great location by the beach"
Great location for beach and restaurants. Bed was a bit hard and no kettle but room was v clean. Friendly staff. Would recommend and planning to go back.Genuine Expedia guest review
"perfect view"
Great views from the hotel room we stayed in. Room was also clean and spacious with balcony. Breakfast was descent. A bit far from old city centre but very close to Malaga beach. Will stay there again if we go back.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice place to stay, close to the Malagueta Beach"
We went to Malaga and stayed there for 4 days 3 nights, overall it was a good experience staying at this hotel. At first we had some problem looking for the hotel, reason being its slightly far from the train station (Malaga Centro- Alameda), however on the way to the we passed by quite many of the famous tourist spots, such as the Old Town, the Castle […] of Gibralfaro, the port of Malaga etc. The price in my opinion, is reasonable, for it offered us a room with good air conditioning system, and breakfast included which starts from 7.30 to 10.30. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Location is the best thing about this hotel"
Excellent location with good bus service. Handy for beach and walkable into town. Breakfast was passable. Rooms are borderline clean but a bit tired although this room had a fridge while others don't. Facilities throughout the day are non existent. The bar was open at night but it was very expensive so don't buy alcohol there as it's much cheaper to […] go out. Basically, if you want a hotel that you don't want to spend much time in then this is fine. If you want something with excellent facilities I would avoid it. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Hotel is very nice, right on the beach front"
Had a great stay at this hotel and would recommend paying the extra for the sea view, the road is below but if you can live with that it's a beautiful view. The breakfast is a continental type with Fruit, toast etc. so you don't miss the hot stuff. All in all clean and worth the money.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Nice hotel in good location"
Stayed here for 3 nights in march 2014 to have a few days on the beach - great location and gate at front opened by room card gives access to sea front. Small pool and sun loungers at hotel and buffet style continental breakfast nice. Rooms are a good size, clean bathroom and beds comfy. Great balcony on all rooms with table and chairs, only downside […] is rooms are not very well soundproofed, you can hear outside traffic on main road with door to balcony closed and also noise from next rooms banging doors and talking. Reception staff polite, not over friendly but one younger man very helpful indeed. Price very reasonable with breakfast included. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice hotel, great location"
I had an all too short but very enjoyable stay in this comfortable hotel in a super position across the road from the beach and an easy walk into the historic town. The reception staff were helpful but rather dour.....a smile would make a world of difference!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Hotel close to beach and Malaga City centre"
We went to Malaga over New Year for some winter sun and to visit the Alhambra in Granada. We were not disappointed with either. Malaga was pleasantly warm with lots of sun, Granada was rather cool in the mountains but well worth a visit. We used the buses (around 1.75hrs) booked on the web which were excellent. The breakfast at the hotel was very good […] and we found lots of bars and restaurants around the town. We had a standard room which had the view at the front of the hotel. The room was clean and comfortable. In the summer the sun would be off these rooms for most of the day so could be cooler. The only negative was the thinness of the walls to the adjoining room, we heard many of the activities of our neighbors !! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great location. Grumpy reception staff."
Hotel location was great with a regular bus service into town. I had requested a sea view but was asked to pay extra for this at check-in. Expedia have now updated their website making it clear that you pay extra for a sea view. Breakfast was fine, plenty of choice. Coffee was from a machine which was satisfactory rather than good. No mini-bar in the […] room and no options to get hot or cold drinks during the day as the pool bar was closed. The hotel was clean but a bit dated in appearance. Free wi-fi in all rooms was useful. English speaking TV channels limited to news programmes. Reception staff were grumpy bordering on rude. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Ideal location"
Ideal location for a 2 night stay with a pleasant stroll into Malaga Old Town via the revamped port area. Hotel parking was tight but do-able . Room was very comfortable and breakfast on both mornings was impressive with good variety and great toast - must get one of those machines for home! For the time of year, hotel wasn't really busy - but that […] suited us. Would recommend to anyone wanting a break in Malaga Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Excellent hotel for sightseeing in Malaga."
Well located hotel -- excellent for old town & the beach & port area. Easy access from airport -- take the A1 bus (3 euros) to it's end station near the bull ring & then the no 3 or 11 bus two stops (€1.30) or just walk from the bull ring about 15 minutes --a very pleasant walk getting used to the area. Check google map to help you find the location. Hotel […] was clean & comfortable & served an excellent breakfast .Location could not have been better. Bus stops very close to hotel linking you into the excellent public transport system in Malaga -- no need for car hire. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Pretty nice for 3* hotel"
Very nice stay. Hotel is situated just 15 min from centre. The only problem we had was that we had lovely room with sea view but there was cross road just under balcony where is quite traffic so we couldnt sleep too well with opened door. But the rest was cool especially hotel stuff was very helpfull with everything :)Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great location but very run down hotel and not 3 *"
Greeted by a Spanish Basil Fawlty, could not have been ruder. Asked for a sea view room and he told me how could I expect that when I booked last minute. He was so rude, it was hard to take in. Decor dated but clean, location excellent next to beach, old town, transport etc Breakfast fine, lots of local restaurants next to the hotel great value 10 euros […] for 3 courses. All in all, if you can handle basic OK, shame the chap on reception let the other staff members down. He was around 60 with glasses for the record. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"nice hotel close to the nice beach"
Before our trip to Morocco we asked for wake up call at 4 am. Hotel receptionist made notes, but forgot to enter this in computer. Fortunately i made insurance and set my own alarm. We almost lost $300. I never heard any excuse. (Happened September 23, at 8 .00 PM)Genuine Expedia guest review
"The place grows on you."
Initially poor, due that check in reception after our long trip were unsmilingly unhelpful, we had booked a double a long time ago but there were none left. Also we asked for a sea view, which we didn't get, and then the beds were "firm" to say the least, so we were going to kick up a fuss on this review. However after a day the dated grandeur of the […] old classic hotel warmed to us and we ended up liking the place enough to say we would stay again for sure. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Could be better"
Good location with the beach infront of the hotel. Not much to do during the evening. Staff don't recommend much to do and would prefer the room to be cleaned (swept) everyday. Good 20 minutes walk into city centre with nice views.Genuine Expedia guest review
Nice middl-range hotel with perfect location close to a nice beach and beach-club. We loved the sea-view from our room. Only 2 downs, - no fridge to cool beverage, and no ironing facilities at the hotel. But the chinese-mini-shop next door has plenty of cold beers and drinks, so we managed fine ;-)Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Does exactly what is says on the Tin"
It was cheap at less than £70 per room per night and although not the most modern in decor or facilities it was ideal for our group of friends. Excellent location, right on beach from back entrance and pool was good too. City centre was easy 15 min walk with loads of great bars, clubs and restaurants. A few bars (including one right on beach opposite […] hotel) serving food and drink. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Just OK"
Internet very poor. Difficulty to obtain a room on ocean side but we got it. Breakfast included was OK. Parking is very smal and difficult to use.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Las Vegas it is not"
Some reception staff obviously dislike the English . Unhelpful and rude.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great Hotel for All"
Good location; helpful, friendly staff; great value; happy, comfortable stay. Wish they'd provide 2 pillows per bed, however.Genuine Expedia guest review
"lucky strike at las vegas"
at check-in there was no problem that we had arrived early. We were allocated a lovely room with amazing view of the beach. Staff were experienced and very helpful. extra blankets and pillows were provided although we hardly needed them despite the time of year. Breakfast was excellent and the whole stay was very good value.Genuine Expedia guest review
"A nice winter break."
Very nice hotel, very good value. Would recommend to those seeking a quiet winter break.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Good value, great location."
For the price, this was a good hotel. I had a view of the sea. There are rooms that don't, which would not be as nice. Breakfast is varied (fruit, toast, pastries, cold meats, cheese, cereals) and plentiful, though some of the stuff is on the economy end of the scale. Nevertheless, I didn't get bored of it over the 8 mornings, and had enough to keep […] me going until lunch time. The coffee - despite being from a machine, was pretty good. The staff varied from just civil to quite friendly - not bad for folk who've been looking after tourists all summer. The pool is clean and well kept, but it is small. I was there during the first week of Sept, so the season was ending. I think with more than 6 people in it it would feel a bit crowded. The beach is fantastic, and right across the road.There are decent restaurants and some good playground-like facilities for the kids (zipwire, climbing frames, etc). The hotel is 20m from 3 good little restaurants. Try the pig's cheeks in the first one - gorgeous. In the other direction (left out of the door, heading up the very slight hill) is the town. It's about 10 minutes walk to the main drag, and 15 to the main sights. There is a good supermarket 5 mins from the hotel (first or second left on the way into town). Lovely fresh food, meat, beer, wine etc. It's 22 euros for a taxi from/to the airport, Much cheaper by bus, but not quite as quick/convenient. This hotel is in a very good spot. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"comfortable stay"
The bed was super comfortable the room was big with a huge balcony to relax on. It's by the beach and not far to walk into the town. The staff were a tad ignorant, they would not acknowledge you when leaving or entering the hotel they were either talking amongst themselves or on computers. The staff member which seemed to be the restaurant manager was […] very rude. I did think of making a complaint at the time but thought let it go I'm on vacation he must be extremely unhappy person. The staff could do with updated training in hospitality. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"good hotel"
Wifi - extrmely weak connection in our room (the bottom one) Air condidioning - working very fine, quickly and not too loudly Room - quiet, though a little dark Swimming pool - excellent!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Tacky hotel."
Disappointing. Hotel in verry pour condition. Good position in hotel zone, close to the city and the city beach, but beach a bit dirty.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great location, worthy accomodation."
Great hotel for the price, nice staff, clean room, lovely breakfast, very good location, we could could walk to the city centre, the beach is just 2 minuts from the hotel, well equiped room (air conditioned, tv, phone). Only annoying thing, the walls too thin, could hear every noise from the next room and the corridors.Genuine Expedia guest review
This 3 star hotel, does not even have a bar fridge, or kettle in the room. I requested a cot for my child and this was not available, although I have this in writing. Only 1 staff member could speak English, the rest were plain rude. The location of the hotel is perfect for the beach, the city centre and lots of restaurants in close proximity. It does […] also have a pool and is the only 2 plus points for this venue. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Almost perfect"
I've been coming here for the past seven years. Location is perfect - right on the beach but only a ten minute walk from the centre of Malaga. Rooms are large, comfortable and clean. Breakfast - and breakfast staff - are fine. Retro-cool Sixties bar-lounge area. All great value. The only downside - on this visit as on all previous ones - is that reception […] staff are uniformly unwelcoming, ranging from cool to rude. Baffling when everything else is so good.

"Las Vegas hotel Malaga Spain"
my husband and I stayed in the Las Vegas hotel in february 2012. The hotel was lovely and in a convient location not far from the city centre with a great bus service right outside the door. Our room was really nice very bright with a great view of the beach and sea which we loved. The room was also very comfortable and clean as the maid came in to […] clean and provide us with fresh towels everyday. The breakfast was great, a buffet with plenty of choice. The only problem I found with this hotel was the reception staff were not very friendly. The dining room staff and maids were very and would say hello ect but the reception staff rarely did and as this was the first part of the hotel you would come across it is surprising that they were not friendlier as it would make a big difference upon arrival. Overall we enjoyed our stay there very much and I would stay there again it we visited Malaga again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Overall OK..."
Overall Ok, but room must be modernised as this looks very old design. furniture should changed. however, the location is good just beside the beach. nice sea view from hotel bed.Genuine Expedia guest review

Comfortable hotel. Didn't experience the bad service some other reviewers have reported. Right by a beach.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Her er vildt meget larm, hotellet ligger mellem 2 store veje, en på hver side, svært at finde sin nattero her.Morgenmad er ikke mennesker værdig, her er sparet på alt. Personale er uforskammet, og laver kun lige præsis det de skalGenuine Hotels.com guest review

Your night out is over. You step out of the club's raging din and onto the sidewalk, where the relative silence is as shocking as a slap in the face. Head spinning, you realize you might not be up for the drive home just yet. Stumble over to Puerto Sagua for a no-frills Cuban meal in an atmosphere easygoing enough to enable a soft landing when you come back to earth. The restaurant -- a South Beach institution for more than 30 years -- stays open until 2:00 a.m., perfect for clubland's early exits, and it won't break the bank, assuming you have some bank left after those double-digit cocktails.
